The high speed AV train service between Verona and Milano is provided by:
(1) these more frequent Frecce/EC trains
Trains departing at different times can be cheaper than others leaving on the same day, so you may need to look through the day's departures to find the cheapest fares.
(2) less frequent, but generally cheaper Italo trains.
--------------------------------------------------------
Tickets for the Trenitalia Frecce trains are placed on sale around 4 months in advance (usually), but the Italo train tickets are made available around 5 months ahead (usually).
Trenitalia does not sell tickets for the Italo trains - and Italo does not sell tickets for the Trenitalia trains.
If you're booking no more than 4 months ahead and have no particular preference for the train that you will be taking, the price and departure times of the Frecce and Italo trains can be directly compared on Trainline or Omio; though look out for the fact that both of these services will charge a booking fee.

(1) These Frecce trains which are operated by Trenitalia
(2) Less frequent trains Italo trains, which match the speed of these Frecce trains,
They can be cheaper than these Frecce trains, though they are not operated by Trenitalia, so aren't sold on the Trenitalia website.
Though departure times and prices can be compared on the Loco2 AND Trainline booking websites - on the links below.
(3) Slower Regionale trains, though they will be cheaper if you are booking tickets last minute at the station.
However, the limited numbers of Super Economy tickets for these Frecce trains, which will be placed on sale on the Trenitalia website, will be cheaper than taking the Regionale trains.
